Objective: Milk is composed by a complex microbiota which can be influenced by numerous factors such as the season, the diet, the type of litter, the facility. As well, the animal's genotype can affect the composition of the milk microbiota. In milk, ?-casein is characterized by a high-level of polymorphism. The aim of this study was to verify if A1 and A2 ?-casein variants could in- fluence the milk microbioma. Materials and methods: Thirty Holstein cows were genotyped for ?-casein locus and divided into three groups. In two different sea- sons, milk samples (individual and bulk tank for each experi- mental group) and mozzarella cheese were collected separately from each group. Bacterial D…

2015 : « Le vouloir-dire et le silence des langues », dans Acta linguistica, Journal for Theoretical Linguistics, Banská Bystrica, Ekonomická fakulta…

2015

This paper deals with so-called “mind-saying” and “silence of languages”. These concepts mainly belong to cognitive linguistics and specifically to “linguistic neoteny” (theory of uncompleted speaker). Every human being develops a different cognitive relation with the languages he speaks. Nevertheless, those languages obligate him to accept cognitive restrictions to deal with quantity, quality and frequency of the formulations. The restrictions force the speaker to choose between the linguistic production (le dire) and the lack of linguistic production (le non-dire). In the first case, the enunciation is built with the units needed for the expression and the expressiveness of the language. …

Discrimination of almonds (Prunus dulcis) geographical origin by minerals and fatty acids profiling

2016

Twenty-one almond samples from three different geographical origins (Sicily, Spain and California) were investigated by determining minerals and fatty acids compositions. Data were used to discriminate by chemometry almond origin by linear discriminant analysis. With respect to previous PCA profiling studies, this work provides a simpler analytical protocol for the identification of almonds geographical origin. Classification by using mineral contents data only was correct in 77% of the samples, while, by using fatty acid profiles, the percentages of samples correctly classified reached 82%. The coupling of mineral contents and fatty acid profiles lead to an increased efficiency of the clas…

ON-LINE CONSTRUCTION OF A SMALL AUTOMATON FOR A FINITE SET OF WORDS

2012

In this paper we describe a "light" algorithm for the on-line construction of a small automaton recognising a finite set of words. The algorithm runs in linear time. We carried out good experimental results on real dictionaries, on biological sequences and on the sets of suffixes (resp. factors) of a set of words that shows how our automaton is near to the minimal one. For the suffixes of a text, we propose a modified construction that leads to an even smaller automaton. We moreover construct linear algorithms for the insertion and deletion of a word in a finite set, directly from the constructed automaton.

Understanding Consumers’ Convenience Orientation. An Exploratory Study of Fresh-Cut Fruit in Italy

2021

In Western society, the fresh-cut fruit market is experiencing significant growth, especially in Italy, where, in 2019, the fresh-cut fruit sales volume increased by 35% compared with the previous year. This study aims to understand Italian consumers&rsquo

Patterns of word reading skill, interest and self-concept of ability

2016

AbstractThe majority of previous research on academic skills, self-concept of ability and interest has deployed the variable-oriented approach and focused on self-concept, or ability, or interest only. This study examined the patterns and dynamics of pattern change in Finnish children’s word reading skill, self-concept of ability and interest from kindergarten to Grade 2. Six groups of children were identified by using the I-states as objects analysis (ISOA) procedure: (a) low skills, negative self-concept but high interest; (b) high skills but low interest; (c) average; (d) high skills, positive self-concept and high interest; (e) low skills, negative self-concept and low interest; and (f)…

Approximators and mitigators in Chilean Spanish: the case of 'como' and 'como que'

2019

espanolEn el presente trabajo se realiza un analisis del uso de los aproximadores como y como que en el espanol de Chile y la vinculacion de su valor semantico aproximador con la atenuacion pragmatica. Diversos son los trabajos que han otorgado al marcador como un valor aproximativo (Mihatsch, 2009, 2010; Jorgensen y Stenstrom 2009; Jorgensen, 2011; Holmvik, 2011; Kornfeld, 2013; Kern, 2014; Jimenez y Flores-Ferran, 2018) y tambien un valor atenuador (Briz, 1998; Jorgensen, 2011; Holmvik, 2011; Kornfeld, 2013, Panussis, 2016; Mondaca, 2017; Panussis y San Martin, 2017). Asi, el objetivo es analizar la relacion que existe entre la aproximacion semantica y la atenuacion pragmatica por medio d…

Brain Opioid Activity and Oxidative Injury: Different Molecular Scenarios Connecting Celiac Disease and Autistic Spectrum Disorder

2020

Celiac Disease (CD) is an immune-mediated disease triggered by the ingestion of wheat gliadin and related prolamins from other cereals, such as barley and rye. Immunity against these cereal-derived proteins is mediated by pro-inflammatory cytokines produced by both innate and adaptive system response in individuals unable to adequately digest them. Peptides generated in this condition are absorbed across the gut barrier, which in these patients is characterized by the deregulation of its permeability. Here, we discuss a possible correlation between CD and Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) pathogenesis. ASD can be induced by an excessive and inappropriate brain opioid activity during the neon…
